Suggestion: Somewhere embedded in OOTP's powerful engine, have a mode available that provides REPLAYS only (bypassing OOTP's development engine), much like Strat, APBA, and ActionPC Baseball. This should include the ability to structure simple drafts from free agent and rookie pools as they evolve within the structure of these leagues.

Reason: OOTP would attract many more "traditional" replay and draft league gamers who don't have the time or interest to make Financial or GM type decisions (coaches, etc.).

Critical Implementation Factor: This "traditional" mode needs to be easily selectable and NOT require tweaking every option to find the right combination of toggles that produces this gameplay mode.

I know I may be in the minority, but there's a bunch of us "over 40" crowd that still wants to focus on historical drafting leagues.
